On Friday, my friend Ed Pettibone took me to the historic First Church in Albany, N.Y. also known as the North Dutch Church. The building was erected between 1797-1799.
The Dutch Reformed congregation, founded in 1642, claims the oldest pulpit in America - brought from the Netherlands in 1656 for an old set of worship known as the Blockhouse church.
